Description
5,000 Litres an Hour for Big Reservoirs and Recirculating Systems
The BOYU FP-5000 Adjustable Pump is a submersible water pump moving up to 5,000 litres per hour with a maximum head of 4.5m, through a 1-inch (25.4mm) outlet. Flow is adjustable at the pump, so you can trim it to suit a flood table, a recirculating line or a transfer job. The shaft is non-corrosive and every live part is sealed and insulated, so it copes with continuous duty in nutrient solution.
Key Benefits
- Up to 5,000 L/h - enough to fill flood tables or move a large reservoir quickly
- 4.5m maximum head - pushes feed up to multi-tier or distant runs
- Adjustable flow - set the output to the system rather than fitting a bypass
- Non-corrosive shaft and sealed, insulated components for nutrient solution
- Easy to strip and clean - the housing comes apart for impeller maintenance
Weak Flow Where It Matters
An undersized pump shows up at the far end of the line: slow floods, drippers that barely run and pots that dry unevenly, leading to poor nutrient uptake and patchy growth. Sizing on both flow and head height keeps pressure at the last outlet, and the FP-5000 has headroom for larger systems.
How to Use
- Submerge fully and stand it on a flat base, clear of debris
- Connect 25mm (1") hose or pipe to the outlet
- Adjust the flow control to suit the system, remembering output falls as head height rises
- Clean the intake and impeller regularly - never run the pump dry
